Grandma's Lawn Chair Pattern Winner

It has been a hectic week here, both at work and personally! We are starting our "busy season" at work and on the home front, my youngest son just purchased his first home - very exciting! In between I did manage quite a bit of sewing but that is for tomorrow's post!

Did you see? I was so excited!! My version of Grandma's Lawn Chair was picked up and posted on the Aurifil Facebook page! I do love Aurifil thread and use it for piecing and quilting! And it was so exciting to see the link for Katie's 100 Quilts for Kids in this post! This quilt is being donated locally as part of Katie's charity drive. Have you made your's yet?

 

Thanks for the screen shot Diane! I really do need to learn more about how to do all of that!

And so glad that I was- this is a great pattern! It is easy, fun and fast! I am so happy with the results - although I must say - I don't think my Grandma ever had a lawn chair like this! Just sayin'......
